anime

I still have the Eds stuck in my head

From first arc

I can't even imagine how, but I guess everybody watches shows in a different way

railgun and index have very different vibes

the only take I have heard that made me question it

was syren liked index 1 more than railgun 2

i would describe it as

index has a theatre vibe, railgun has a novel vibe

like index feels like actors walking around a stage with paper props sorta

railgun feels more like book-esque

kinda because it is

index is a light novel, railgun is a manga, so I think its more concrete as to placement and stuff

because lns are mostly text as far as I know

i'll hold off on the 2 hour rant for the sake of pika's sleep

yeah please lmfao

no more sprawling anime discussions this late

one day i'll catch you in the morning though

and you'll have no excuse...

lol

I mean, I am up all day

if you want to talk about anime with me just ping me/dm me lol

yeah we need to make the to love-ru tier list video some time

that'd be pretty boring since like 90% of the characters would be in A or S

Mint,bopit, and I did a high school harem tierlist video

and I put to love-ru at the top

because it just has the most solid harem

but yeah

we can revive the tierlist meme for this retarded shit

ok seriously how is railgun the one with tone issues and getting derailed. index is literally just touma showing up somewhere, magically guessing the villain's whole exigence and life story, then punching them in the face, x 4.

When I say tone, I mean jumping from super serious to light hearted slice of life fun the next episode while the ongoing arc hasn't been resolved.

Alright boys

Should I watch all of to love ru next time I want to binge something

I haven’t watched more than maybe one episode

yes

just watch all of to love-ru in general

watch it then you can do the tierlist with pirate and me

and maybe vinny if he watches it in a reasonable amount of time

Alright sure

Where do you actually start though

Isn’t there like a reboot or something

to love-ru -> motto to love-ru -> darkness -> darkness 2 and I think there are OVA's \ OAD's inbetween each one that you want to watch too

each of the 3 entries is a bit distinct from the others as far as tone and adaptation style goes

but they do go in a linear pattern, no remake/reboot or anything

the original show

is its own thing though

while the plot is continuous, it is its own complete story

motto is more like a side story

darkness is its own overarching plot

Hm ok

and yeah

every season has OVAs

that are cannon

and continue the story

so you have to watch them

I guess I heard that and assumed darkness was kinda the same thing as the og show or something

they usually have lower resolution though so

the original show is honest the best one

from a story standpoint

it is complete

I like the twin sister characters that get introduced later though

so the harem itself is at its peak in darkness

i also liked the original's visual style the most even though it was older

The only thing I know about this show is that the sister wants to fuck the main guy like usual and everyone is horny for momo

the original run was kinda an episodic monster of the week show

for the most part

That is okay

then motto is like

I’ve watched all of the original gundam series and enjoyed it

i forget the actual genre name

I can deal with anything

then darkness comes along and really commits to the nudity/suggestive stuff

motto is like slice of life spinoff

in the middle

for no reason

its kinda just filler

between original and darkness

it gets you more used to the new characters before darkness

is what it's useful for i guess

although the OG series ova's are already really good for that
